Fantastic property, exactly as described online and in previous reviews. The space is cozy and well decorated so you feel like you're at home. The hot tub is a nice bonus. I would absolutely return.

The stay was amazing. The place was on a nice quiet street and the driveway was big enough for our rental car the living area, kitchen bathroom and the whole upstairs being a lounge area/bedroom was just amazing. Perfect space for two adult adults exploring Portland Maine. Would definitely return!

This place was great! We got a list of recommendations that was awesome. We only stayed for a couple days, but tried a couple of them while we were in town. The place was clean and well maintained. We also really enjoyed the hot tub after walking around Portland.

Wonderful location. House was very cute and perfect for a couple or small family. Plenty to do on the area. Shared property with 2 other rentals but not an inconvenience or awkward at all. Very clean and cozy.

We loved this home…..very comfortable and in a very convenient location. We would have liked to enjoyed the patio more, but the early fall weather was a bit cool. Don’t be daunted by the upstairs bedroom, it’s very spacious and the stairs were deep and wide, solid and super easy to maneuver (we are 70!). Absolutely would stay again.

Our stay

Dave was easy to reach and answered all questions quickly. House was centrally located and close to all things we chose to do. We didn’t use the hot tub but it was there if we chose to.

Great little place

I was drawn to this for the yard. The lights, fire pit and hot tub were perfect for our family to spend time with each other so we didn't have to go to a bar or restaurant. The inside has almost a little industrial vibe. Great location to the market, coffee, shops etc and easily walk to Back Cove. I would definitely stay here again when back in the area to visit family.

Adorable little cottage in great location

We stayed in Portland without a car and this was such a great location, we were able to walk to restaurants and the farmer's market. It's close enough to town to get around easily. The cottage is super cute, we enjoyed a rainy night there doing a puzzle. I will say that the bedroom is a bit bright on those long summer days! Bring a sleep mask if you're sensitive. Overall really lovely and we enjoyed our time there.

Great little backyard cottage

We loved staying at Dave's place. Despite only being one bedroom, there was adequate sleeping space for four adults. The space was thoughtfully designed to maximize the limited square footage and did not feel cramped at all. The neighbors in the main house were quite friendly (especially their dog) and gave some good recommendations for things to do nearby. A nice quiet neighborhood. We did not use the hot tub, but it would have been a great feature in the colder months. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a weekend getaway in beautiful Portland, Maine!

Cute place, great location

We liked this cosy place near Back Cove. It was the perfect location to see Portland or to go on walks along the cove. The bed is upstairs and we found the sleeping loft very pleasant. The kitchen was well outfitted and everything worked. There’s a small living room (which include a decent guitar and ukelele in playable condition—I enjoyed playing them) with a comfortable couch and a TV, and lots of windows. I thought a lot of attention was given to making this a comfortable space. F.ex upstairs there’s some simple convenient storage space for clothes, a small desk, and an exercise bike. The only minus is that the sleeping loft is upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs. A small inconvenience.

Minimalism with all you need

This location is near everything we needed: entertainment, groceries, pharmacy and food. It is close to downtown while maintaining a neighborhood vibe. The apartment is perfect for a couple, although there is sleeping for plenty more. The seating area is comfortable with blankets to cuddle up in on a rainy afternoon. The kitchen and dining area is small but met all of our needs while saving us some money. Nice bathroom with a roomy, stocked shower. The air system kept the temperature comfortable. The upstairs bedroom is spacious with a small desk to work from and an exercise area with some equipment, including yoga mats. The hot tub was a great way to wind down from our daily adventures. We didn’t not have any maintenance concerns, and Dave was quick to respond to any questions we had. Being able to park in the driveway was a nice perk. Nearby trails and downtown Portland kept us busy and made for amazing memories. 5 stars!
